several don't ask as hit by intense shelling as moscow looks to claim a key victory in the john bass region. and we meet a mother and daughter from ukraine now living here in berlin. one wants to return to her homeland. the other isn't sure. ah. hello, i'm claire richardson, thanks so much for joining us. president joe biden is leading calls for stricter gun control in the united states a day after it's a deadliest school shooting in a decade. a teenaged gun man barricaded himself inside a classroom at an elementary school in texas. he then killed 19 children and 2 teachers who his later shot dead the attacker. but as grief turns to anger, americans and the watching world are once again asking what must be done to stop

gun violence. hugs and prayers were everywhere in you vall, day on wednesday. as the town comes to terms with the murder of 19 children. but behind the displays of grief and empathy, anger and indignation, a rippling through america and our we must ask when in god's name will we do what needs to be done to, if not completely stop, fundamentally change the model, the carnage goes on this country. joe biden will travel to texas in the coming days to meet grieving families. sierra r is monday is one of those relatives. her niece, 10 year old eliana garcia, was killed in the attack. pictures. so i just didn't know how

people could fill that typo again. to kid, to an 18 year old. like what did you get to use it for but for that purpose, out of your adeline, democrat, better oh, rock. publicly confronted the texas governor greg albert. he accused the republican of being directly responsible by liberalizing state gun laws. sir ura, he came to my hometown of all classes. after 23 people were slaughtered, he said he was gonna do something. he did nothing. in fact, the only thing he did was make it easier to buy a gun. the only thing he did was make it easier to carry a gun in public and he bragged about the fact that there would be no, no training, no vetting whatsoever. as the political arguments continue to rage.

more details and now emerging of those killed in me a talk these just some of the innocent lives cut needlessly short. indeed, other correspondence. ethan simons is at the scene of that shooting in texas. here's his report on how people are dealing with their grief. of course they pain trauma shock and all of this, but there is somewhat of a permanent and overreaching moment of silence. people here are withdrawn now it seems they're going inside. they stay inside, they don't want to talk, they don't want to interact, they're pretty much alone with their pain and with their frustration and with the trauma they experienced. and perhaps this is about to last for quite a while. now what's happening in washington, of course, is the healthy debate. now, progressive democrats propagating more change, tougher gun control,

tougher restrictions. republicans on the other side, perhaps i suspect it won't have, it won't touch it for them. it's all about the 2nd amendment in the constitution that every american can bear arms and has the right to bear arms, and this should not be touched with chaffin simons for us there. now let's get the latest on the war in ukraine. russia is stepping up its attacks on the eastern don boss region. moscow has made the industrial zone its main objective. after failing to take control of the capital, keith, russia says it will continue the offensive until it achieve its goals. ukrainian forces are doing their best to push back russian troops despite heavy shelling in this village now back in ukrainian hands. residents tell of their fears as the russians arrived. but i don't think you can we try to keep out of the way? my son. yes. wow. wow, maybe we should go back to the basement. she says that a little bit as
